How to open VUS file?
The main problem with VuStat Data Format is that the VUS file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file VUS to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VUS file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install VuStat
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that VuStat is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing VuStat into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file VUS with VuStat. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open VUS files.
Programs to open VUS file
Remember to download programs supporting VUS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of VuStat with VUS files
If, despite the installed application, the VUS file does not start in the VuStat application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the VuStat application as the default for handling the VUS file.
Step 3. Update VuStat to the latest version
If, despite the association of the VuStat program with the VuStat Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the VuSoft website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VUS file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the VUS file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the VUS file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected VUS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the VUS file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular VUS file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VUS files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the VUS file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file VUS to close. However, some background programs may block the VUS file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
